Theme 1 - What is your Media Life like ?

-


Media 

Media keeps me connected, inspired, and entertained. My journey with media began in my school days, watching movies with my sisters after school. It was our favorite way to relax and bond, creating memories that still make me smile.

Facebook became my first social media experience, where I stayed in touch with friends—it felt so exciting!

While I trust traditional media like TV and magazines for credible news, Instagram, YouTube, Netflix and Pinterest spark my creativity and keep me entertained. Apps like WhatsApp and Telegram help me stay close to loved ones and to be engaged. 

I’m a balanced media user, drawn to interactive and visual content that inspires me daily. Media isn’t just a tool—it’s a source of joy, connection, and inspiration.

The platform hosts threads on topics like safer drug use practices, overdose prevention, mental health support, and recovery strategies, moderated by volunteers to ensure factual accuracy and safety.
